ICO Overview

Blockstack is a new decentralized internet and ecosystem comprised of both an open source project and Public Benefit Corporation (PBC). How it works: Blockstack is a browser extension and developer platform. Developers start by building a single-page application in Javascript then plug into user-run APIs, which eliminates a centralized point of control. Blockstack provides key tools to developers enabling access to decentralized networking, user-controlled storage, blockchain-based identities, and decentralized authentication. Personal users run decentralized apps through the Blockstack browser and grant applications read and write access as they choose. Information is encrypted and stored on users personal devices. There are no middlemen, no passwords, and no massive data silos to breach.

About Blockstack The internet was designed to be decentralized but as time went on, it fell under the control of a few large corporations. This consolidation represents a major threat to data ownership, open markets, and freedom of speech. The architects of the internet got many things right, but they also missed out on focusing on security in the original design. As a result, internet users everywhere have been much less safe and have had their data placed in much greater risk. Blockstack is a way to put users back in control of their digital lives.
